DO NOT USE ICONS FOR ROLE PLAYING ON TUMBLR IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO CREDIT ANYWHERE

DO NOT DO THE THING

THANK YOU

I'm still reeling from seeing someone on my role play Tumblr dash use my icons without any credit anywhere, though I know that's now how Tumblr works, but sheesh. Talk about taking a kick to the head.

Yes, people are now using icons on Tumblr instead of GIFs when role playing. It's a new thing. I stupidly assumed they were making their own icons until this morning when I saw my icons being used.

People are using icons without credit. Like, a lot of people.

On Tumblr, you don't get to pick an icon for a post. So, people typically used images, usually GIFs, hosted on Tumblr to show expressions like you would with icons on a journal. Now, people have started using icons and they're coming to Insanejournal to get them. I had a role player link me to wikicon earlier as their source for icons and said they didn't know people wanted credit.

	If I was going to RP on TUMBLR instead of a journal network, it would be for the GIFs. I feel like this is going backwards. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That was exactly what I was thinking. (Reply to this) (Parent)
